S.C.O.P.E. Inc. Launches MyVoteMattersNYInitiative to Encourage New Yorkers
to Make Their Voices Heard in November

New Yorkers deserve a state that puts citizens first—protects constitutional rights, restores safety, spends taxpayer dollars responsibly, & makes it affordable to live,work, raise a family, and retire here.

“Two hundred and fifty years ago, our nation was founded on the principle that government derives its authority from the people. That principle is just as important today as it was then. Voting is how citizens hold their government accountable and help determine the direction of their communities, their state and their country.”

– John Prendergast,
Chairman of the Board, S.C.O.P.E. Inc.

Through the MyVoteMattersNY.com website, resources are provided to help New Yorkers:

  • Check voter registration status and register to vote;
  • Understand election dates, deadlines and voting options;
  • Learn about key issues; and
  • Compare candidates’ positions and policies.

The MyVoteMattersNY initiative will engage citizens through digital communications, social media, community organizations, participating businesses and other grassroots outreach throughout New York.

The election this November is about ONE MISSION – PUT NEW YORKERS FIRST and THREE PRIORITIES: RESTORE FREEDOM, RESTORE PROSPERITY, RESTORE NEW YORK.
